Relative Registration
Counts by Category and Registrar
Alternative Perspectives on Registrar
Market Share
For each registrar, the table below gives the ratio of that registrar's market share in a given category to that registrar's market share overall. For example, if a registrar had a 5% share of Fortune 1000 registrations but a 10% share of all registrations, the Fortune 1000 cell for that registrar would be 50% because 0.05/0.10=0.50=50%.
A value greater than 100% indicates that a registrar is "overrepresented" in a given category, relative to its overall market share; a value less than 100% indicates that a registrar has disproportionately few registrations in that category, relative to its overall market share. Values greater than 150% are marked in blue, and values less than 30% are marked in red.

Certain registrar names, as reported by Verisign GRS WHOIS, could not be matched with the names used by SOTD's reporting of registrar market share. For lack of data about overall market share, these registrars are omitted from the table above. For brevity, this list omits certain registrars with no Forbes or Fortune registrations and with both Yahoo market shares 0.05% or less.
